Wind Symphony
The Wind Symphony preformed on Monday, October 11 at 8:00 p.m. at the Walton Arts Center in Baum-Walker Hall. The performance lasted one hour and thirty minuets and consisted of six pieces. The first piece was Variations for Wind Band by Ralph Vaughn Williams. All the instruments tuned to the oboe then they started the English piece. The Bass and symbols came in first and was very loud. The song reminded me of the movie ''Raiders of the Lost Ark.'' The feeling
The sixth piece was Vesuvius by Frank Ticheli. This German piece was full of wonderful moments and colors, but changes feelings though out. The fifth piece was Bacchanale by Rolf Rudin. I thought this song was too long, but I still liked it. The third piece was Chester leaps in by Steven Bryant. This piece featured an oboe solo and then the full band came in and repeated the melody several times. I really liked this song because I heard a lot of clarinet and bell solos. I liked this song because it was patriotic. The fourth piece was Marche Joyeuse by Emmanuel Chabrier. This American song moved very fast with a lot of clarinet and flute for the melody. Towards the middle there was a violent volcano sound and then a loud bang at the end. This American piece featured an oboe and French horn solo. First the song starts out suspenseful like something bad is about to happen in a thriller movie.
